Scene 1 Hamlet Quotes

O, woe is me, To have seen what I have seen, see what I see!

Murder most foul, as in the best it is. But this most foul, strange and unnatural.

С кротък лик и действия набожни ний често захаросваме отвънка самия Сатана.

Честността ви би трябвало да се пази от много разговори с хубостта ви.

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. —William Shakespeare, Hamlet, act 1, scene 5

It’s a pity that the rich have more freedom to hang or drown themselves than the rest of us Christians.

The miserable little encounter had nothing to do with me, the me of me, any more than it had to do with that silly clerk. The incident was a recurring dream, concocted years before by stupid whites and it eternally came back to haunt us all. The secretary and I were like Hamlet and Laertes in the final scene, where, because of harm done by one ancestor to another, we were bound to duel to the death. Also because the play must end somewhere. I went further than forgiving the clerk, I accepted her as a fellow victim of the same puppeteer

Hamlet: Horatio! the funeral baked meats Did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables. هاملت: هوراشيو! فإن اللحوم التي شُويت لأجل المناحة قُدَّمت باردة على موائد العرس

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” –Shakespeare, Hamlet, act 1, scene 5

This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.”          Shakespeare, Hamlet, act 1, scene iii

It’s a quote from the same gravedigger scene, where Hamlet finds the skull of someone he knew. The court jester, who represents the inevitability of death, the futility of our actions. Because no matter how happy we are in life, we end the same way. It’s the point of no return in Hamlet’s spiritual journey, for he can no longer make sense of his existence. A shiver runs through me. Nihilism, then. That’s the meaning of the grand parties. The belief that nothing matters, for whether someone is good or evil, happy or sad, rich or poor, they will turn to dust in the end. So there’s no reason to strive, to struggle. No reason to worry about rules or safety. No reason to give a damn.
